静けさ漂う 弘仁寺（奈良県奈良市-Kouninji temple nara-city,Nara Japan）
奈良市虚空蔵町にある弘仁寺（こうにんじ）。
奈良市内から離れた弘仁寺は、静けさが漂い本来の奈良の寺を感じることができます。
弘仁5年（814年）嵯峨天皇の夢に老人があらわれ、この地に寺を建てる事を勧められたという。また、弘法大師が虚空蔵山に流星が落ちるのを見て、この地に虚空蔵菩薩を安置したという話もある。
平安初期に創建されたという寺院ですが、何度か兵火で伽藍が焼失され、現在は江戸時代に再興された建物が残っています。
Chogaku-ji Temple in Nara!
The oldest Buddhist statue in Japan with gems inset in its eyes
It is said that this temple was established in 824 A.D. by Kobodaishi, the founding priest of the Shingon Sect Buddhism. In the main hall are the Amidabutsu, the main Buddha in Buddhism, and two other Buddhist statues to protect it. The three statues, all of which have crystal eyes, are Japan's oldest Buddhist images of this kind and are designated as important cultural assets. In May, the beautiful Hirado Tsusuji (azaleas) in the grounds are in full bloom. Visitors also have the chance to taste locally produced Miwa Somen noodles in the kitchen. Somen are thin white noodles served cold with a dipping sauce. While you wait for your someone you can enjoy the small garden attached to the small restaurant. (700¥ for a serving)

歴史
弘仁5年（814年）、嵯峨天皇の勅願により、空海が創建したと伝えられる。空海は、自ら彫った虚空蔵菩薩像を本尊として安置したという。或いは、小野篁を創建者とする説もある。また、先立つ大同2年（807年）に、この地に明星が隕ちたことから、空海が神聖な土地として寺を建立したとも伝えられる。
元亀3年（1572年）、松永久秀の兵火により、伽藍の大部分が焼失する。
寛永6年（1629年）、宗全によって再興される。

毎日更新されている桜予報で4月2日に「つぼみ」になっていたのが4月3日には「7部咲き」に変わっていて、慌てて見に行きました。
家族同伴だったので、短時間の撮影でした。４Kで撮っておいていてトリミングすれば使えるかと思ったのですが、昨年に比べれば物足りなさが残りました・・・。

Kokuzo-san: Konin-ji Temple!
It's a bit of a climb up, about 100 meters of stairs through a pine forest. Once you arrive at the temple gate, you'll immediately impressed with the serenity of the temple grounds. Its quit, there are a lot of trees and places to sit and enjoy the stillness. The paintings on the main hall are gorgeous, all in all this is a nice place.
This temple is located in the middle of a mountain, 180 meters above sea level. It is said that Priest Kobo Daishi built in 814 by Imperial edict of the Emperor Saga. It was rebuilt in 1629 after burning. There is Wooden Kokuzo Bodhisattva from which thirteen-year-old children are given wisdom, so the children who reach thirteen years old visit this temple with their parents on April 13th.
This temple is sometimes called the Kokuzo-san ( deity of Wisdom) in Takahi. It houses the Sangaku, unique votive tablets with math questions and their solutions written on them. They date back from the Edo Era (1603-1867), which were hung up at the outer space in the temple hall.
Yamanobe-no-Michi: Japans Oldest Road! Pt 2
We started of on a sunny day from the Obitoke JR station in Nara prefecture. Our first stop was the Obitoke temple, just a five minutes walk from the station. Many couples visit this temple to purchase the maternity belt to encourage child bearing. This temple originally was constructed in 858 by the order of Kobo Daishi, also know as Kūkai,(774--835), was a Japanese monk, civil servant, scholar, poet, and artist, founder of the Shingon or True Word school of Buddhism.
About 1,100 years ago, there lived the Empress Somedono, wife of the 55th emperor, Montoku. Known as Akirakeiko, she was the daughter of the Dajo Daijin, Premier Fujiwara no Yoshifusa, chief adviser to the emperor, who was the most powerful man of the period. Although an extremely wise and beautiful woman, she was greatly tried, by her inability to bear children. One night, she had a dream, in which the following was related: One ri (2.44 miles) south of Nara, an exalted Jizoson has been dedicated. Place your faith in this Jizoson. Believing these words as being instructions from the Buddha, she consulted with the emperor and went on a pilgrimage to this temple, where she offered her prayers. Before long, the empress was rewarded with the good fortune of becoming pregnant. She prayed once more, this time for an easy delivery, and, at the end of her term, with great tranquility, Imperial Prince Korehito (the future Emperor Seiwa) was born. The joy of the people was beyond description, and in the spring of 858 the empress became a temple petitioner. She reorganized the temple and its buildings, renaming it Obitoke-dera Temple because her Iwataobi (maternity belt) had become untied so easily.
In this way, a profound reverence was fostered in successive generations of the imperial line, as well as in the Fujiwara clan; worshipers often pray for conception, easy delivery and quick recovery from illness. The temple became known far and wide, and worshipers milled about its gate as if it were a bustling market. As time passed, however, the samurai came into ascendancy, and the land entered an era of war. In the course of battle, the temple was set afire and destroyed.
With the arrival of the Edo period, Oraku no Kata, the concubine of the 3rd Tokugawa shogun, Iemitsu, prayed at the temple for conception and an easy delivery. She gave birth to a son, Takechiyo Maru (Ietsuna, the 4th shogun). Overflowing with happiness, she bestowed the temple with numerous images of Shakamuni and other Buddhist images and altar equipment. In 1663, a washbasin was presented by the 4th shogun, Ietsuna. Old records reveal that over the years many noble ladies were rewarded with easy deliveries after praying at this temple. Among them were: Ukon no Kata, the concubine of Ienobu, the 6th shogun, in 1707: a court lady of the Emperor Higashiyama in 1694 and in 1696, Yasuhime, wife of Dainagon (chief councilor of state) Karasumaru, in 1670; and Fushiminomiya Miyasundokoro (the consort of an Imperial prince) in 1851.
More recently, a Buddhist memorial service was performed in 1959 on the occasion of the pregnancy of her Imperial Highness Princess Michiko, the wife of the Crown Prince. And iwataobi (maternity belt), charms and Shinto talismans were presented to the temple. On February 23 of the following year, Prince Hironomiya was born. In August of 1965 and October of 1968, services were performed again, and iwataobi and charms were again presented. Prince Ayanomiya and Princess Norinomiya were born healthy and sound, and the temple was honored with a letter of thanks from the Togu-gosho (Crown Prince's Residence).
From here we went towards Konin-ji temple about a 1 hours walk from Obitoke dera. Along the way we passed a small shinto shrine situated on a small hill, just of the main road. However There was no name written anywhere to identify it. There were several red Tori's along the stairway leading up to the small Hondo.
